Alex Kurtagic is name perhaps not familiar to some people. Though, most of us who involved in the scene know him as the guy behind the English label SUPERNAL MUSIC which are responsible for several great releases of bands like DRUKDH/HATE FOREST/BLOOD OF KINGU/DARK AGES, SUNWHEEL/KATAXU,ELDRIG, CAPRICORNUS/INFERNUM/THOR`S HAMMER .e.t.c. Also his name can be noticed as maker of the cover of the CD version of the Cult demo "Anno Domini" of the Lengedary band TORMENTOR.

Recently i came across through his personal website, what impressed me more is not exactly the number of bands that he involved, as there is plenty of people who doing this, but the fact that Alex Kurtagic seems to be involved in many different musical and non-musical projects. The most important of all is that amongst many things Alex is a writer too! Soon a new work of him will be published, its a book named "Mister" , here is the description of it :

Mister, 2009A status-conscious IT consultant travels to Madrid for a week of meetings at Scoptic, who have hired him to implement a fiendishly arcane accounting system equipped with artificial intelligence, in an effort to keep the company one step ahead of the government’s rapacious tax authorities. Renowned within the catacombs of the scientific community, and with an impressive publishing record in the most prestigious trade and academic journals, he expects to do serious business with a serious organisation. The only problem is that he lives in a hot, overcrowded world where nothing works: hyperinflation, crumbling infrastructure, rampant crime, political correctness, corruption at all levels, and a new world order globalist government, determined to regulate, monitor, and tax every aspect of a person’s life; opposed to the forces of totalitarian democracy are occult underground movements, most notably the Esoteric Hitlerists. As a result, nothing goes according to plan, and frustrations mount as things go only from bad to worse... In his first novel, Alex Kurtagic presents a grim and sarcastic depiction of the everyday consequences of living in a world where present social, cultural, economic, political, and demographic trends have been allowed to continue unabated. The novel is replete with obscure information and modern heretics, its elegant prose losing the reader in its bizarre logic, delirious paranoia, and meandering speculations, where nothing - and nobody - is what it seems.

Does this look intresting? Certainly to my eyes yes! I`m always glad to see that there is more and more outspoken like-minded people in the scene who always move further and using their (Musical or whatever) skills in order to enlight and make aware more and more Europeans about things which today are considered forbidden by the present Status quo.I plan in future (Depends always on my free time) to prepare some questions for Alex which which will be used as a small debate about his works and mostly around his books. In the meantime, keep checking his websites for the latest news more informations about his works.

2007 & 2008 was really bad years concerning cinema. During this period there was only perhaps 1-2 films that saw the light of the day. That was a big dissapointment for me as i always believe that a good film can be like a good album or a book. Enjoyable and the same time inspiring as well.

It came as pleasant suprize to me when a comrade informed few days about the movie version of Robert Howard`s "Solomon Cane". I visited the film`s page in Wikipedia to find out more information about the film. I was really glad when i saw two good actors there. Max Von Sydow and James Purefoy. The first one doesn`t need any special introduction i think as we all know him from Cult movies like "The Seventh Seal" & "The Virgin Spring" (At a younger age) and also his great appearance as "Father Merrin" later to the famous "The Exorcist". I`m pretty sure that the guy will fit to the movie perfectly. As for James Purefoy, the first time i saw his work was in "Rome" series in the role of "Marc Antony" , i was quite impressed with his great appeareance and brilliant playing (After we all know how hard is to play a role that actors like Richard Burton played before). I think James Purefoy is a person that will fit to the role of "Solomon Kane" himself without doubt as he already proved that he is a very talented actor.

There is not much room in the works of Robert Howard for political correctness. Though, nothing will suprize me as the claws of Multi-racial tyrrany are pretty much everywere in this dark days. Still, "Solomon Kane" is a film that i`ll definately have an eye open for it. The same i`ll suggest to anymove who likes Heroic/Horror Fantasy.Time Shall tell...

It seems that the last years Athens have become a "modern" and "progressive" city like the ones in the rest of Europe. This year the "gay parade" tried to provoke by passing near the Golden Dawn`s main offices in the centre of Athens. Though , they did not thought that Golden Dawn members was there. So members of the Youth Front stood in front in order to to block the "march" of the faggots and other similar genetic garbage and also to protect the offices. As usual the police (within 2-3 min time!) placed full forces against the Golden Dawn members and later used chemicals without a reason. The same time also other people by the roofs of the buldings around had throw eggs to the faggots while the same time the comrades shoting "Faggots out from Athens!"

This is was a message that there is people around Europe who will not tolerate this trash walking around having full protection by the goverments and media.

8 years after their one and only demo, the time has finally come for the last rite of RAVENBANNER... 6 buried and forgotten tracks from a 2001 session, return from oblivion to mark the short era of a band that was created out of pure hateful feelings and coldness... Harsh and Raw Black Metal Paganism inspired by the early 90s' Antichristian War and the scent of the Burning Churches...This album includes the demo as a bonus and it's the tombstone of RAVENBANNER.

New album by the Swedish masters of Martial/Neo Classical Music. And Judging from the samples it seems that here we have another masterpiece and perfect follower of their previous album "Standarts of Triumph". Here is the official statement taken from Arditi`s official website:

March 2008

"We sing the praise of war. Not for the way it makes people die, but for the way it makes people come alive."

The highly anticipated new album by the Swedish duo is finally upon us, under the title "Omne Ensis Impera". The sense of determination that echoes through their music and which has brought them to the forefront of Martial / Industrial Neo-Classical scene has stayed untouched, evoking the sense of duty and commitment that Italy's WWI elite storm troops, from which the name Arditi originated, were known for.

"Omne Ensis Impera" introduces an additional strength to Arditi's compositions - epic orchestral loops and thunderous percussions are granted a more prominent role, stirring the damp and suffocating ambiance that the duo have always produced so well with their use of ominous synths, obscure speeches and mesmerizing narrations.

Similarly, shades of the Italian Futuristic movement of the early XXth century, which served as inspiration in the early days of the project, remain imprinted in Arditi's work - "Omne Ensis Impera" could well be a modern interpretation of the Futurist's goal of glorifying warfare to an artistic expression beyond its inherent violence and intrinsic sense of heroism.

"Omne Ensis Impera" has been mastered by Kamrat Nordvargr of Mz.412 and Toroidh, an old ally of the band. Nordvargr has also contributed with additional arrangements on a couple of tracks, and prepared a slightly modified track list, which will feature on the vinyl version of the album that will follow soon, together with a limited edition box set. The CD version is presented in a deluxe glossy Digipak, with embossed artwork.

After the fall of the Byzantine Empire in 1453, the Turks spread in the areas of the once Byzantine territories, including Hellas. The Hellenes often caused trouble to the Turks and their allies in the following centuries with shock-raids or low scale guerilla warfare, but nothing as organized and widespread as it was happened in 1821.

Although almost 400 years passed after the occupation of Hellas from the Turks, the Hellenes managed to keep their Blood pure. The Turks were not settled in Hellas as they did in Asia Minor, but they had established garrisons. Women who were left pregnant from a Turk were killed.

Thus, the Hellenic spirit was still alive, urging the Warrior Blood of the Hellene to raise his Sword in defiance and hate against the Mongol intruder. And so it was done.

After several meetings of Hellenic captains and guerilla leaders, they declared on the 25th of March 1821, a total war against the Turks and their allies (Albanians, Egyptians, etc.).

After pressure towards the church to grant officially its "blessing" (the church wasn’t too eager to fight the Turks since they had made pacts with them not to harm them, leaving the rest of Hellas in the Turkish hands), captains and guerilla warriors from all over Hellas raised their swords against the Turks with one battle cry: Victory or Death!

The first Hellenic town to be freed was Tripolitsa . Captain Kolokotronis, leading his army, stormed the town in a decisive battle that swept the Turkish army there, leading it to total destruction. No Turk was spared. When the battle ended, the soil was moistened by the Turkish blood that many chroniclers wrote that the horses were slipping. Kolokotronis had a deep hatred against the Jews, because they were helping the Turks by betraying every Hellenic movement against them,( Jews also were slave traders that time) etc. He rounded up every Jew in the town and executed him, declaring that such vermin has no place on Hellenic Soil! That day by order of Captain Kolokotronis 3000 Jews was slayed.

Kolokotronis led countless victorious battles against the Turks, all over Hellas. He was so much feared by them that his name was synonymous to Terror in the turks. In another incident he confronted an entire turkish battalion with a handful of men, charging against them. The turks believed that they were the front ranks of a bigger army and the turned in panic, with the Hellenes slaughtering them down.

Another significant captain was Nikitaras, nicknamed the Turkslayer. He engaged the guerilla units from an early age and he took part in countless battles. In one incident, he killed so many turks that his hand was swallen and he couldn’t remove his sword. He once said to a chronicler that "…there was no greater joy than slaying the turkish dogs!"

To write down every battle that took place during these years would take many books. So in short, other important captains were Karaiskakis, Odysseas Androutsos, K. Kanaris (ancestor of Admiral Von Kanaris of the German Wehrmacht, whose daring tactic of burning turkish ships by crashing upon them small boats loaded with flammable material earned him a high esteemed reputation) and many more, everyone distinguished for his courage and deeds against the vast turkish army and their allies.

The Hellenes have restored their ties with Ancient Hellas, and they knew that the war that they were fighting now was important for the preservence of the Ancient Hellenic Spirit.

In one incident, a turkish guard was cornered upon the Acropolis and soon their lead supplies ran out, so they decided to bring down the columns of Parthenon and get the lead that it was used to hold the column pieces together. When the Hellenes heard about this, they sent them a message and told them that they will give them ammunition in order not to touch the monument. They said that these stones was the Cause that they were fighting for.

After the liberation of Hellas, years later, petty politicians tried to erase their names from the pantheon of Heroes because they wanted to manipulate for their own interests the new established government. Many brave warriors were jailed because they wouldn’t cooperate with this traitorous scum. But their reputation was written with Fire and Steel upon the Battlefields of Hellas, not by trying to please the turk, as these political whores did.

Important was also the fact that many people from other places of Europe have come as volunteers to help the Hellenic fighters , Mainly people from France , England ,Germany(The famous Bavarian fighters who in honour of them there is still today a monument of a big Lion in Nafplio city) and Russia.

What we can learn from the Uprise of 1821, is that only a strong bastion of a few but determined people can change everything. These warriors could be a perfect example for what we are fighting for in the present: the liberation of Europe!

Hjarulv Henker

The mountains look on Marathon --

And Marathon looks on the sea;

And musing there an hour alone,

I dream'd that Greece might yet be free

For, standing on the Persians' grave,

I could not deem myself a slave

....

Must we but weep o'er days more blest?

Must we but blush? -- Our fathers bled.

Earth! render back from out thy breast

A remnant of our Spartan dead!

Of the three hundred grant but three,

To make a new Thermopylae.

By Lord Byron (English Volunteer in the Hellenic Revolution of 1821)

"I was, moreover, much impressed by a biography of Mozart which was read aloud; and the newspaper accounts and monthly reports of the events of the Greek War of Independence stirred my imagination deeply. My love for Greece, which afterwards made me turn with enthusiasm to the mythology and history of ancient Hellas, was thus the natural outcome of the intense and painful interest I took in the events of this period. In after years the story of the struggle of the Greeks against the Persians always revived my impressions of this modern revolt of Greece against the Turks."

Found this very intresting news on another forum and i think its good to share it here. There is 2 kind of people. Those who believe in the European Traditions and supertitions of Old and those who think that its just a coincidence. I definately belong to the first category.

"LONDON (Reuters) - A mythical and ghostly creature has appeared in the wilds of the Scottish Highlands -- and has been caught on camera. The rare white stag, from the red deer species, is believed to be among just a tiny handful living in Britain, according to a conservation group.The John Muir Trust is now keeping the stag's location secret for fear of poachers.

"To see him amongst the other stags was truly thrilling because he does look like a ghost: you do a double-take," Trust Partnership Manager Fran Lockhart, who filmed the stag, told Reuters.White stags are seen as a magical and powerful force in many mythologies.The animal's ghostly glow comes from a recessive gene which causes leucism, a condition which reduces the normal brown coloring in hair and skin. They are not albinos, which have red eyes due to lack of pigment.In Celtic traditions, white stags represent messengers from the afterlife. Arthurian legend has it that the creature can never be caught -- King Arthur's pursuit of the animal represents mankind's spiritual quest.It is also said that for those who set eyes on the animal, a momentous moment is near."They say their appearance is meant to herald some profound change in life for those who encounter them -- but I am still waiting," said Lockhart.Her dog, though, stood transfixed for 45 minutes watching the white stag, instead of his usual scampering around.Lockhart believes the Scottish Highlands' white stag is between 6 and 7 years old. She said he is maturing well, with a good set of antlers.The last official recording of a white red stag in Britain, not to be confused with the more common white fallow deer, was last October when the body of one was found decapitated on the moors between Devon and Cornwall."

What White Stag symbolizes:

The white stag is a familiar creature of myth and legend. Its origins are likely in the totemic period of early Indo-European society, particularly the northern societies of the Celts and pre-Indo-European cultures, whose subsistence was gained not only through agriculture, but through hunting.This dependence on deer may be seen in the zoomorphic Celtic god Cernunnos, depicted as being a man with the antlers of a deer. The white stag in Celtic myth is an indicator that the Otherworld is near. It appears when one is transgressing a taboo--such as when Pwyll tresspassed into Arawn's hunting grounds, or when Peredur entered the Castle of Wonders in his second adventure at the house of the Lame King. It also appears as an impetus to quest--the white stag or hart often appears in the forests around King Arthur's court, sending the knights off on to adventure against gods and fairies.The white stag is not only a creature of the gods, but is a god himself, symbolizing the creative life force of the universe--sex, life, and also death.

Its always a pleasant suprize to get an album and from a band which is already good but in the end to hear something totally different from what you already knew. Same happened to me with the Swedish band FYRDUNG. Last week i got from a comrade ( Thank you Niklas!) the latest album of this Swedish guys, named "Hyperborea". Anybody who is involved in the Racialist scene is more or less aware of FYRDUNG. I have heard some of their early material that i liked a lot but because Fyrdung sing in Swedish language i always had the opinion that this stuff appeal more to people who speak or understand Swedish. Fyrdung is melodic R.A.C. with some Folk touches, which at times reminded me of another Swedish band named ULTIMA THULE.

Ok , forget all this now! FYRDUNG made a totally different album. Their new stuff is Melodic Black Metal in the good old Swedish vein, with the biggest influence to be the Classic Dissection`s album "The Somberlain". The lyrics still remains in the same vein ofcourse. I`m very glad to see that like-minded people who come from another scene to be able to play such inspiring music that i grew up with. This album is A MUST for people into the above mentioned musical style.
